Comment(by haduong at centre-cired.fr):

 From what I understand (i.e. not much), it seems that:
 The new kernel package of the ".dev" branch in the "testing" repository
 should be marked as conflicting with the old module packages of the
 ".stable" branch in the "Om2008.8" and "Om2008.8-updates" repositories.
 So that upgrading the kernel uninstalls the old module packages.

 Another solution: the old module packages should require the old kernel,
 so that when the kernel is replaced, the modules have to go too ?

 In any case, let me know what to write in the wiki. Is it that in the new
 release the modules are included in the  kernel package ? Or is it that
 they are compiled in ?

 Thanks
